This Instant And Moment - 2022!

And I just go to switch on my PC for the first time after Christmas and it goes bang and won’t switch on. Hopefully just the power supply. Merry Christmas!

As suppliers closed down or went on reduced hours during Christmas, hence why there are gaps.

If there’s a break in the supply chain, the delay shown in a few days later.

This happens every year and customers don’t understand this.

The pantomime, actually, amazing.

Some of the jokes were more topical/adult etc which made it great. They were also playing around on the fact is a pantomime if that makes sense 'Oh are you crying? Looked more like a laugh. Shows how well our rehearsal went!'

Eg Prince Charming 'I know what you mean about family...my brother Harry changed since he met his partner and now its all over Netflix'

And Prince Andrew saying he has a few 'minor offences'.

They also went through, 3 of them, around 20+ different chocolate bars having a conversation but making puns. Eg 'Really? Give us a Twirl' etc.

Due to postal strikes, had a card received from a family friend who said sending out cards early - posted on 2nd Dec as wife unwell.

Had a text an hour after I got card that she passed away 23rd.

Spooky

I don't understand travel insurance, why would a single trip be more expensive than an annual policy?

I just filled in Single, then click edit and changed to Annual. Everything else stayed the same.

M&S hot mince pies and brandy butter. Indulgent but deliciously yum!

Braved the supermarket before it's too busy tomorrow, really dismal place these days. Minimal staff and rubbish stock.

Looks like Admiral don't do short term, only annual, but they're cheaper than competitors.

There's a reason they're cheaper than competitors... The received wisdom is "Don't insure with Admiral if you plan to claim". So far I've found this fairly true.

On the one hand they were amazing when someone crashed into me, on the other they hadn’t included my NCB discount in my payments and several years after leaving them sent me a fairly large cheque for my overpayment. It was a nice surprise at least.

That's good to know! Maybe I'll have a nice surprise when I leave...

Oh god the "Build a 1/100th replica HMS Victory. First issue £1.99" adverts are back. In small print, it says requires 340 issues. Cost of 2nd and subsequent issues are £6.99. So costs about £2370.

Not one to drunk post usually but my lord I have drunk too much rum tonight. I've been for a semi-consentual vomit but am not looking forward to tomorrow. Wish me luck!

 

[[FnG]magnolia]

I am here for you my dude until I also am drunk posting and then the baton passes and someone else taps in.

 

[godinman]

Ugh, this is not a good morning.
